Bristol Rhythm & Roots Reunion has a long tradition of female inclusivity. Approximately 46 percent of the acts booked in 2023 are women or include bands with at least one female. In celebration of the groundbreaking women who came before them, festival goers are encouraged to take in the special exhibit “I’ve Endured: Women in Old-Time Music” on display now through Dec. 31 at the Birthplace of Country Music Museum.

In conjunction with the exhibit, the Birthplace of Country Music Museum is partnering with The Crooked Road: Virginia’s Heritage Music Trail to bring old-time music by the Mustard Cutters, The Loose Strings Band, Ferrum College’s Orchestra Appalachia, Whitetop Mountain Band and Addie Levy to the museum during Bristol Rhythm & Roots Reunion.

Weekend passes to Bristol Rhythm & Roots Reunion are on sale now at BristolRhythm.com. Tickets to tour the museum and the special exhibit are sold separately.
